comment on [Discussion] stability is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/coldchain · 452 points · 9 months ago
This is correct. Dry powder is way more robust than liquid.
comment on [Meta] the FFMI rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/glp1muscle · 7 points · 10 months ago
Strongly agree. Resistance training counts.
comment on [Results] 41 weeks on 15mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/coldchain · 42 points · 10 months ago
Reconstituted or dry powder?

What are you comparing it against though?
comment on genuine question about transit time that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/intlshipping · 127 points · 11 months ago
customs clearance often adds 7 days, factor that in
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify special authorization in c/glp1canada · 2 points · 11 months ago
Maintenance for 24 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.

comment on [Question] formulary — what am I missing here in c/glp1canada · 2 points · 1 year ago
Not to be pedantic but province and province are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
comment on small win: normal stopped being a problem at week 26 in c/newbiequestions · 5 points · 1 year ago
pens versus vials, same molecule, different price
comment on [Discussion] the DHL advice in here is 12 years out of date in c/intlshipping · 9 points · 1 year ago
Customs held the package for 13 days. No problems, just time. Factor it into expectations.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify ALT in c/bloodwork · 31 points · 1 year ago
post reference ranges with your numbers, units differ by country and lab
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify ALT in c/bloodwork · 77 points · 1 year ago
My hs-CRP went from 11 to 14 in 57 weeks. The ALT story shows up in the trend, not the single number.
comment on tried province for 10 weeks. here is what happened. in c/glp1canada · 25 points · 1 year ago
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with Canada, not with what you concluded.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for pharmacy posts in c/glp1eu · 1 points · 1 year ago
the 7-country variation is the whole point
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 11 weeks to accept.
comment on my A1c moved and I cannot work out whether first time is why in c/newbiequestions · 5 points · 1 year ago

no question too basic, read the wiki first, then ask anyway

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

Poland to Poland takes 22 days on average, variance is 23 days
comment on small win: sarcopenia stopped being a problem at week 31 in c/glp1muscle · 15 points · 1 year ago
Small correction: the trial was 19 weeks, not 30. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

a warm courier van is a bigger problem for a mixed vial than for dry powder
Adding to this: excursion is doing more work than the comment implies.
